General Manager

About Brick Lane

Located in the heart of the Arts District, Brick Lane is a modern Indian culinary destination where technical refinement meets deeply rooted cultural storytelling. We bridge a forward-thinking, data-driven approach to hospitality with traditional warmth, creating an understated, high-caliber experience for our guests. Our beverage program emphasizes technical mixology utilizing regional South Asian ingredients, while our kitchen focuses on precision, contemporary technique, and culinary artistry.

We are seeking a General Manager who views hospitality as both a fine craft and a beautifully engineered business. As the operational anchor of Brick Lane, you will partner closely with the founding team and culinary leadership to foster a culture of operational excellence, financial precision, and seamless, intuitive service.

Core Responsibilities

• Drive Operational Excellence: Oversee daily front-of-house (FOH) and back-of-house (BOH) flow, ensuring every guest experience is flawless, sophisticated, and consistent.

• Cultivate and Lead Team Culture: Recruit, mentor, and inspire a hospitality team that values continuous learning, technical refinement, and authentic human connection.

• Fiscal Stewardship: Manage P&L, labor optimization, inventory, and supplier relationships with the precision of a seasoned business operator.

• Systemize Growth: Refine standard operating procedures (SOPs) and integrate restaurant technology to ensure the operation runs seamlessly, setting the stage for future scalability.

• Community Engagement: Act as the face of Brick Lane in the Arts District, building sustained relationships with guests, neighbors, and industry peers.

What We Are Looking For

• Proven Leadership: 4+ years of GM or Assistant GM experience in a premium contemporary, or Michelin-caliber restaurant environment.

• Obsession with Detail: An intuitive eye for the nuances of service—from lighting and pacing to the precise execution of a complex beverage and tasting presentation.

• Leadership Style: A leader who commands respect through empathy, candor, and composure during high-velocity services.

• Passion for the Concept: A genuine appreciation for modern South Asian flavors, technical mixology, and a "quiet luxury" approach to guest service.

• Analytical Mindset: A data-driven approach to restaurant operations, with a sharp understanding of margins, labor cost controls, and P&L management.

What We Offer

• Competitive base salary range ($95,000 – $115,000 DOE) plus performance-based incentives.

• Comprehensive health insurance.

• Paid time off (PTO) and dynamic professional development opportunities.

• An empowering, collaborative leadership environment with an expanding hospitality and wellness portfolio.
